ICOM Handheld Radios

One for the radio anoraks (or Jon Brooks

!!), and it might be a dumb question, but what is the difference between an Icom IC-M1Euro and an Icom IC-M1EuroV?

Is one just older than the other?

Any ideas what the 'V' is?

Very good, Manos.

Euro V is a newer model, better waterproofing etc. Far toooo late to type any more.

I think the M1 Euro does not the accessory socket on the top where with the euro V you can have a speaker/mircophone.

All is correct

M1 was only "slashproof" and no mic socket

Erm, does this mean it only was protected from damage occurring late at night after copious quanities of Beamish?
